CALCUTTA, Oct 11, 2010 (Washington Bangla Radio / prurgent) In
celebration of the centenary of Mark Twain’s death, Montblanc has
dedicated its Limited Writers Edition 2010 to one of America’s greatest
novelists. The uniquely crafted writing instrument is a fitting homage
to the creator of such classics as “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn”
and “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer”.

Regarded to this day as the founder of Modern American literature, Twain
was a vocal opponent of slavery and racial segregation. His works were
socially critical yet entertaining novels and short stories, which
inspired generations of authors. Driven by a precise observant eye, a
fierce sense of humour, and critical wit, his works have left an
enduring effect on American literature.

New York, NY, Oct 4, 2010 (Washington Bangla Radio / prurgent) Aimeé
Perez brings the warmth and passion of Mexico, her native land, to her
realist and emotive human portraits. This self-taught artist begins by
recording her subject in pencil on canvas, meticulously conveying the
minute details of his or her features, expression, and surroundings. She
then renders this scene in color, applying a thin layer of oil paint
with small brushes, using light and shadow to create a lifelike image of
her subject at a given moment. Aimeé strives to “give form . . . to
something ambitious—that seal that each of us have that makes us what we
are, that ‘something’ that gives importance to a piece of time.” The
resulting works allow glimpses into the lives of her subjects and
connections with their intimate thoughts and emotions, thus prompting
viewers to ponder, to think, to feel.

Born in Leon, Guanajuato, in central Mexico, Aimeé currently lives and works in Vancouver, British Columbia.
